Trying to decide what seasonal beers I should bring in to the HEB I buy beer for, but I have pretty limited space. What would you buy if out of these?
1 
2 
3 
4 
5
I know the 6 pack is the odd man out, but just imagine its a single bottle. | | | | | Sponsored Links | Premium Members do not see Google advertisements. SIGN UP today and help support our community.

Personally, I'd go for 4, because I love flippy bottles. I also like #s 1 and 3, tho.
Man....how do you get a job buying beer for HEB....I SO need that job! | | | |

Have purchased the Great Divide a few times, had it at GABF, and in their Denver tasting room. So that one got my vote. It's good stuff.
I would also buy 1, 3, and maybe 5. Which HEB are you at, and is this a sign of better beer to come at HEBs in general? That would be awesome! | | | |

The last one has a picture of snow and a little cabin ... reminds me of skiing and fun and ale I've had after skiing. I'd go for that one. Chocolate flavored beer sounds interesting in theory, but I doubt I'd buy six of them. The graphics of the fourth one are clean and inviting. If the fifth one didn't remind me of skiing, I'd go for it. | | | |

John,
Since you are fairly new to the forum let me take you under my wing and show you where you have gone wrong with this pole. 1) first have a gtg, close to me would be fine, 2) have a tasting with those of us experianced in the fine art of beer drinking. Or just have a party with only those beers and the brand that runs out wins.  | | | |

You don't have a Dr. Pepper beer listed.
